Combining the agility of a pure player with the strengths of an established OEM makes Ampere unique. Now, we go to execution mode. The more we focus the more obvious the opportunities become for Ampere to spearhead the shift to electric and software. Targeting a 40% cost reduction in the next vehicles generation, setting tech and innovation at the core of Ampere’s organization, delivering appealing products at the best price: this is all in line with our tradition to democratize technology and create value for our stakeholders.”

Ampere is a growth story, shooting for 30% compounded annual revenue growth rate (CAGR) until 2030. With 80% of its investments already behind, it targets operating profit and free cash-flow breakeven as early as 2025, and a double-digit margin in 2030.

In the last 2 years, the Renault Group has paved the way for Ampere’s ambitions. From Day 1, Ampere can rely on one of the best EV and Software ecosystems in Europe, including:

• Outstanding EV value chain coverage thanks to a unique ecosystemic approach, from 10% in 2019, to 30% in 2022, to 80% in 2030.

• Outstanding software capabilities, proven by one of the best infotainment systems in the market.
• More than 20 deep partnerships with the most innovative companies all along the EV and software value chains, from Google to Qualcomm, and from Valeo to STMicroelectronics.
• Unique manufacturing ecosystem in France (ElectriCity), with a 400,000 units capacity at Day 1, a clear roadmap to reach 1 million units, and best-in-class productivity; 80% of suppliers within less than 300 kilometres, ensuring reactivity, cost-efficiency, and unmatched carbon footprint.
• Renault brand 95% awareness and field presence with 4,700 dealerships all over Europe.

Now, by setting up a team of around 10,000 highly skilled people, of which one third engineers, Ampere is ready to compete with the best EV and software players:

• Reducing costs by 40% on a car-by-car basis in the next vehicles generation by 2027+. Part of the levers allowing for this will already be embarked into the production of Renault 5 (2024) and Renault 4 (2025).
• Exploring current and upcoming battery technologies from sodium ion to solid state.
• Reaching around 90% battery-to-wheel e-powertrain efficiency.
• Lowering parts diversity by around 30%.
• Pushing manufacturing productivity at the best levels, reaching less than 10 hours production time per vehicle.
• Developing an innovative, cost-efficient, and open Software Defined Vehicle architecture.
• Offering peace of mind at every step of the customer journey: the choice to go digital or physical; a smooth charging experience with a dense European network; enhanced car reselling value thanks to full lifecycle management and SDV upgradeability.

Beyond technology and competitiveness, Ampere will project the Renault history into the future. It will rely on a compelling line-up, including instant classics like Megane E-Tech electric, Scenic E-Tech electric, Renault 5 and Renault 4.

TOMA DESPLIEGUE!

Con menos dinero sacarán más modelos que DS… DS, ponte las pilas.

Claro, el A290 está basado en la CMF B EV. Me refería a los otros nuevos que van a sacar, si todos van a ser con la misma, o alguno planificado saldrá con la actual que lleva el Megane por ejemplo

Pues o lo tienen ya en pleno desarrollo, o lo van sacar a partir de esa base, o alguno se va a retrasar, porque en 3 años parece un poco difícil montar una base con su modelo específico…

El «A390» ya se está desarrollando sobre la CMF-EV del Megane eléctrico, no creo que eso cambie. Aparte se estaría presentando el año que viene a continuación del A290. Para el resto de los modelos, si podrá haber plataforma nueva.

-Renault supera los 770.000 vehículos vendidos en el primer semestre hasta situarse como segunda marca en Europa y tercera en España

Este vídeo explica un poco toda la tecnología del concepto H1st:

Respecto al concept H1. Es exactamente lo mismo que el scenic vision

Normal, cada mes sacan dos ediciones especiales xd😂

Igual les puede perjudicar al grupo por media de emisiones, ni idea eh

A ver, sobre la F1 lo ha hecho súper mal, pero el tío hizo un road map súper coherente, subido en ventas el a110, etc. En ese punto lo ha hecho muy bien
